The Psychic Whispers Of Spirit
Have you ever heard mysterious whispers? If so, what were they trying to tell you? Well, growing up in Columbus Ohio, I often heard whispers or someone I could not see who seemed to be trying to tell me something. Today, I know this is known as the psychic sense of clairaudience.
I could not understand these whispering voices back in the 1960’s, and it was certainly not something you would talk about. Things like paranormal phenomena, mediumship and psychic abilities were simply unheard of in my community! It was different then, not like today.
These days we have easier and more open access to paranormal and psychic books, videos and information sources on the Internet. Nowadays you can just log into your computer or tap your phone, and find something about these subjects; or you can switch on your TV and stream your favorite channel. It seems almost every channel you turn to has some of other program about paranormal or psychic phenomena these days.
I never had the opportunity growing up to tell my parents the truth about my clairaudient ability. It was bad enough that I was able to see stuff and that I knew what would happen in the future. The fact that I heard ‘whispers’ I simply had to keep a secret! But now I know when you have a gift like this, God gave it to you, because he has a plan and purpose for your life.
When I hear these whispers, I have learned to tune into what they are trying to tell me. Sometimes it is my mother or father, who passed on, wanting to tell me something. Sometimes it is my spirit guide trying to get my attention.
Being a psychic my ability to hear these ‘whispers’ gives me a better understanding and access to valuable insights, but it can also be very challenging. For example, my wife and I have been house-hunting for some time now. I was amazed to discover in how many houses I would suddenly no longer hear the realtor or my wife speaking to me. Instead I heard whispering voices asking me questions like “why did I die?” and “Can you help me please?” or “Where have they gone, why are they no longer living here?”
Connecting With Your Inner Wisdom
In a world rife with uncertainty and daily challenges, most of us are bound to turn to other people in our life to help us deal with our problems or regain a sense of direction. While this is perfectly normal and human to do, spirit teaches that it is best we also connect with our higher self to find the answers we are seeking.
Unfortunately, trauma and stress can significantly block the clarity of our intuition, prevent us from gaining access to our inner wisdom and divine guidance. The following strategies can help us reconnect with our inner being and build a stronger connection with our inner guidance system.
Ignore The Noise
Stop listening to the opinions and views of others. I am not suggesting that you should never take good advice, but be selective about who you choose to listen to. And if their opinion does not resonate with your inner being, walk away.
Too much external ‘noise’ can really block your instincts if you become preoccupied with what others think. There is also the fear of upsetting others or not living up to certain social norms or family expectations. If you were to give in to this, you may very well find yourself living other people’s dreams and ambitions instead of your own.
Avoid the kind of ‘well-meant’ advice that usually only serve the needs of the one advising you. Politely thank them for their interest and concern, but disregard their opinions and simply go ahead with what your inner voice advises. The Chinese Philosopher Lao Tzu said, “He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened.”
Embrace Your Intuitive Psychic Experiences
We all experience déjà vu. It’s that feeling you get when you sense you have experienced a present situation in the past, or you have been in a certain place before, doing exactly the same thing or talking to the same person as you are right now. Note the word feeling, because this is important.
Déjà vu is a psychic phenomenon that many people experience in their lifetime. I have experienced this ‘out of the blue’ familiar feeling many times myself.
Apart from déjà vu, we also experience a variety of other psychic intuitions, such as hunches, gut feelings and strange dreams. These experiences are glimpses of the past, the present and the future.
I believe these types of psychic experiences are meant to show us that we are spiritual beings and that our spirit guides and angels are with us. They travel with us through life and let us experience these things as a sign that we are not just human and that we are never alone.
Do not fear the feeling of déjà vu, do not resist your hunches, do not ignore your gut feelings. Embrace all of it and know that you are a beloved, protected and guided spirit being in human form.
As you go through life, always be aware. Be awake and open to receive any messages from the Universe that need to be downloaded in any moment. Every unusual sensation or feeling or thought is usually there for a reason, even if you do not understand the reason in that moment.
For example, I stopped driving on a certain road the moment I felt in my gut that it was not safe for some reason. Later, I found out that there was an accident just a short ways up the road that I thus avoided.
The Gifts Of Psychic Communication
How does a loved one in the spirit realm communicate with a psychic medium? Actually, there are many methods of communication that spirit may use to reach us. It mostly depends on the relevant psychic or medium. Each reader or channeler has different psychic abilities.
Some of us can see, while others hear, sense or feel. These abilities are more commonly known as the ‘clair senses.’ Reputable psychics and mediums will always do their best to communicate what they perceive using the various psychic senses. It is advisable to get your psychic readings only from psychics and mediums who have one or more of these abilities.
Clairvoyance (clear seeing): the ability to ‘see.’ It is the psychic ability to see visions in the mind’s eye. It is typically experienced as mental flashes or visual imagery.
Clairaudience (clear hearing) – the psychic ability to hear messages being spoken by spirit.
Clairempathy (clear feeling) –the ability to feel the emotions of others in this world and the next.
Clairsentience (clear sensing) – more commonly known as intuition, such as a hunch or gut feeling.
Claircognizance (clear knowing) – the psychic ability of just knowing things. Along with clairsentience this is the most common psychic ability.
Clairolfaction ( clear smelling) – the psychic ability associated with smells, such as smelling a departed loved one’s favorite perfume.
Tune Into The Guidance Of Your Emotions
I believe our emotions are an additional ‘sense’ we use as a means of interpreting our life experiences, in the same way the normal five senses enable us to perceive and understand the world around us. Our ‘emotional sense’ help us make decisions about our preferences all the time.
For example, I love chocolate. My sense of taste tells me that chocolate is for me! It’s a very clear and obvious signal from my taste buds to my brain. We receive and process stimuli all the time and our senses help us to ‘make sense’ of that input.
Your emotions are also giving you information about your preferences and if we listen and pay attention, we can gain a lot of guidance from it. Our emotions don’t just come from nowhere. They arise in direct response to stimuli or input, just like our senses do.
I have also heard emotions described as an internal guidance system, or our inner compass, which helps us decide what we want to create more of, and less of, in our life. We sometimes get confused though, because just like the other senses, we have different preferences.
For example, some people love coconut desserts, but I detest then. Not thanks, keep your coconut out of my chocolate! The thing is, I’m not confused about the fact that I don’t like coconut. I also don’t feel I have to change my preference because other people love coconut. And I also don’t force myself to eat it, just to make other people happy.
When one of our five physical senses tells us something we tend to listen, because it’s visceral. We feel it undeniably in the body. Emotions are no different!
When you are heartbroken, do you not feel it in your chest as a physical pain? When you are embarrassed, do your cheeks or ears not become flushed? Or how about when someone you love hugs you so warm and deliciously, all your muscles just ‘melt’ into that person? These are all physical responses the accompany our emotions.
The Echo Of Landshut
I do not consider my psychic abilities a curse, nor a blessing. However, it does come with its own set of challenges, as well as advantages. For example, when I sense something ominous or even dangerous is about to happen, I can’t always prevent it from happening. That is a devastating feeling.
When I was eleven, I had a nightmare that woke me up repeatedly. The word Landshut, the name of nearby city in Bavaria, kept echoing through my mind and I had a strange vision of an aircraft on a runway in blistering heat. Bear in mind that this was back in 1977 and traveling by plane was not as common as it is nowadays. I had never even been on a plane at that age. All I knew about planes was the little I saw on the two TV channels we had in those days.
The weird dream kept repeating for several nights. I had no idea what it could mean. One night I woke up screaming so loudly that my parents rushed to my room. I told them that something bad was about to happen and that it had something to do with a large passenger airplane in Landshut.
I asked my dad what he thought it all meant. Dad said that Landshut only had a big car factory, but no planes. It also made no sense since the city only had a small airfield. There was no proper airport that could accommodate a large passenger plane. He then brushed it off by saying I just had an overactive imagination and that I should stop reading so many thrillers!
Two weeks after my birthday, a news report revealed the true meaning of my dream. A Lufthansa jetliner had been hijacked mind-air on the afternoon of October 13, 1977 by four members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. While waiting for their demands to be met, the plane ran out of fuel and had to land in Mogadishu, the capital city of Somalia.
Remote Viewing In Psychic Readings
I use remote viewing with good results in my work as a professional psychic. Remote viewing is the practice of ‘sensing with the mind’ to get extrasensory impressions about a distant or unseen target.
Several studies have been done on this psychic technique in the United states and Britain with mixed results, of which the most famous is probably the US military’s Stargate Project.
For a valid or successful remote viewing there needs to be a set location or object that the remote viewer must aim to ‘see’ without having any prior knowledge of it. Next, a controller would have to be in place to ensure no information of this target is revealed to the remote viewer.
Then viable information must be collected by the controller from the remote viewer to ensure the chosen target is actually being ‘seen.’ This is where it gets tricky. From my personal experience as a remote viewer, the ‘seeing’ is the easy part. The interpreting what is seen into tangible information is the more difficult part.
For example, structures and buildings have all kinds of angles, walls, cylinders, steps, nooks and crannies. There are also various textures that have to be brought into context, such as rough, smooth, hard, soft, as well a variety of colors, light reflections and even shadows. The time of day, weather conditions and climate also play a role.
Basically, observing the target, the remote viewer must try to gather as much information as he can possibly describe to someone else, so they can literally see what you see. Easier said than done! To understand the complexity of this process, imagine a scene in your favorite movie and try to describe the scene detailing everything the eye can observe in a certain scene.
In my case, I have had the help of a former forensic artist who worked with law enforcement, who makes sketches for me when I do remote viewing. If I had to draw my visual impressions of a remote viewing target, it will only be basic stick figures and simple shapes, like an elementary school drawing.
